Open Inventor does not support boolean operations on objects. This
is typically the domain of geometry modeling software like ACIS.
FYI, TGS does offer the SolidViz extension to our commercial Open
Inventor, which provides interactive rendering of objects defined
as boolean operations on arbitrary shapes. In other words we don't
compute the actual CSG geometry, but we can draw a picture of it
using rendering tricks (which is much faster than computing the
geometry and sufficient for some applications).
Open Inventor does support OpenGL clip planes, but I'm not certain
what you mean by "slicing".
